Setup:

  • 2x HPE ProLiant DL380 g7
  • 1x Cisco 3750
  • 1x Random PC as NAS
  • 1x Edgeswitch POE (for security cameras and AP)
  • 1x UniFi AC LR
  • 1x Netgear something (not in use, only use it to hold the monitor)
  • 1x Senstar A10D Thinclient (Not really in use)
  • 1x Raspberry Pi as Unifi controller (not for long as I am upgrading from a USG to a UDM Pro)
  • 1x Raspberry Pi with Flightradar24 stuff
  • 1x Ripe Atlas Probe
  • 1x Deltaco power meter

Software:

  • Running Proxmox on both servers, Truenas Scale on my “NAS”

Usage:

  • Jellyfin
  • Frigate
  • Docker -> Websites, discord bots, fediverse bots, Nginx Proxy Manager (gonna change this to traefik soon), Portainer
  • VPN (Wireguard)
  • Immich
  • Development stuff as I am a developer
  • I will install LibreNMS soon and PiHole

Network:

  • UniFi Security Gateway (changing to a Dream Machine Pro)
  • UniFi AC LR
  • UniFi AC Pro
  • Ubiquiti Edgeswitch 8P
  • Rasperry Pi running UniFi controller
  • 1 dumb switch due to one port not working on the router and I didn’t have any managed available
  • Cisco 3750
  • No VLAN due to that one dumb switch, fixing it soon

Rack cost: 20 security cameras and 2 hours of my time

Issues:

  • Hard drives on one of the servers are a bit sketchy so that server is currently offline until I get new ones (they also cause the fans to go to 78%)
  • Need to mount the AP, had a mount but due to bad placement of stuff it got warm air and my 3d printed one didn’t like it and became soft and warped…

Future moves:

  • Getting some more switches soon
  • Hopefully getting another server soon
  • Might be going from a 500/500 line with 1 IPv4 to a 1000/1000 with 2 IPv4 if I can, changing ISP so I can get IPv6
  • Fiber going straight into router
  • More security cameras
  • Setting up Home Assistant and Zigbee
  • Mounting my AP to the roof again

So this is my small rack, getting more stuff soon I hope
